Incident Details

La Tomatina will take place in central Buñol on August 26, with the annual tomato fight scheduled from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM. Attendance is limited to approximately 22,000 participants, with large crowds and crowd surges expected throughout the city center. Access to Plaza del Pueblo will be restricted at 7:00 AM, and increased demand on public transportation is likely as attendees travel to and from the festival. The close-quarters nature of the tomato fight increases the risk of falls and other minor injuries.
